KB4056892 is Awaiting restart

Unfortunately, when I did a restart it bricked my system. I had a large windows logo on the screen and it just sat there.  I rebooted and was able to trigger a repair.  The repair said it was backing out the last update as it would not be completely installed.

With KB4056892 is Awaiting restart I did another restart and had the same problem.  At the end I was staring at a Windows logo that just sat there.

Again I triggered a repair and the system is now usable.  However, Windows Update still says: KB4056892 is Awaiting restart

How do I block it so it doesn't get installed if I have to reboot the machine?

    Hye

               For me i did i pass the tool  wushowide and did the first one not the one to hide it erase all the update in " installation historique " and restart the computer. and to make sure my windows update was ok i run the wu170509 to repair it. the update kb4056892 wasnt install probably because its not on the server anymore i think.

    P.S Dont forget to uninstal it before that
